Football: The strongest post-zero generation

Chapter 82 Steal + Direct Shot

The fanatical atmosphere at Anfield Stadium quickly declined. Liverpool fans once thought that Li Qing's small-angle shot could help the team beat Chelsea at home. However, man proposes, God disposes. The victory that they wanted to defend became an opportunity for Chelsea to equalize the score.

The score became a draw. Many TV commentators believed that there were basically no surprises in this game. 2:2 might be an acceptable outcome for both sides of the game.

Klopp, who appeared on the broadcast screen again, obviously did not want to accept a draw. He wanted to win!

For some reason, he looked at Li Qing, who had already scored twice in this game.

The next moment, he shook his head. It was obviously unfair to pin the hope of winning the game on Li Qing, not to mention that he had already scored two goals. In other words, without Li Qing's two goals, Liverpool might have to accept the outcome of falling behind by two goals at home.

When Mane handed the ball to Li Qing, the game entered the first minute of injury time. According to the four-minute injury time electronic card held high by the fourth official, there were more than three minutes left before the end of the game.

"Enough." Li Qing thought confidently after handing the ball to the midfielder. Liverpool attacked with the ball, and Chelsea players retreated in full, just like Liverpool who were ready to maintain the score until the end of the game. Chelsea defender Zouma stood next to the fourth official. The on-site director quickly switched the camera while Liverpool's attack had not reached the key point. New England Sports commentator Jin Xiangkai said in a deep voice: "Chelsea is going to keep one point." The ball was passed to Li Qing on the right after several consecutive passes. Because he scored two goals in just five minutes, Chelsea defender Azpilicueta was like a big enemy and did not treat him as a 15-year-old boy at all. Kante, the defensive midfielder who was repeatedly broken by Li Qing, was watching closely beside him. Matic and Fabregas, who came on as a substitute, also consciously paid attention to Li Qing's movements. From Li Qing's performance in the first few minutes, it can be easily seen that he has outstanding speed and excellent footwork. Such an offensive player must commit a foul if he cannot complete the regular defense. Otherwise, there will be endless troubles. Seeing Chelsea players ready to fight, Li Qing wanted to break through, so he had to pass the ball to Henderson in the middle, and then look for opportunities by running.

However, there was little time left in the game, and the second minute of injury time ended quietly. Li Qing, who kept running, frowned because he noticed that his teammates became a little impatient. Mane on the left had tried a long shot before, but he fired a cannon under the interference of David Luiz.

Zouma's signal to replace Diego Costa was very obvious, that is, to retreat completely and maintain the draw until the end of the game.

Li Qing, who ran to the right rib of the attack, raised his right hand to ask for the ball, and Wijnaldum, who got the ball in the middle, passed the ball directly.

Li Qing made a false impression that he was going to meet the ball and accelerate from the inside line, deceiving Azpilicueta and Kante to have an obvious movement to retract inwards. At this time, he stopped on the spot, let the ball turn around, and followed the ball to the outside line.

It was in this way that Chelsea's defensive left outer line was completely exposed.

Chelsea coach Conte did not show any emotion. In his opinion, compared with the core area, the two flanks can be strategically abandoned.

Chelsea players were worried that Li Qing would repeat his old tricks. Kante, Matic and Fabregas all consciously leaned towards the left side of the defense. The players on the right side of the defense naturally filled in the middle, so that the right side of the defense exposed a huge gap.

Klopp, who was standing in the coaching seat of the home team, saw it and was anxious: "It would be great if Li could see this gap..."

Li Qing stopped on the spot, pulled the ball to the left with the sole of his right foot, raised his left foot about 25 meters away from the baseline, and kicked the middle and lower part of the ball quickly with the inside of his instep. The ball quickly took off and flew diagonally from Liverpool's offensive right to the offensive left rib.

The speed of football transmission is always faster than the individual movement of players. The diehard fans in the KOP stand felt that this scene was particularly familiar, as if... they had seen it somewhere.

Milner inserted along the offensive left rib at a high speed, and the timing of Li Qing's pass was exactly the same, achieving the true sense of pass and run consistency.

The broadcast screen quickly switched. Leshi Sports commentator Zhan Jun saw Milner who was unguarded and suddenly shouted: "Li Qing, who was closely guarded on the right side of the attack, sent a long pass, and Milner rushed in at high speed. There was no defensive player next to him!" Conte, who was standing in the coaching seat of the visiting team, excitedly took a few steps forward and shouted to the players on the field: "Go up and defend!" In fact, there was no need to remind them. The players on the field with extremely high tactical literacy would automatically return to the defensive right side, but the gap exposed on the defensive right side was really a bit large, and Li Qing's long pass was very accurate. Milner ran and dribbled the ball to the left rib of the penalty area. The nearest Moses was at least three meters away, so he had enough time to observe the running situation of his teammates and decide whether to shoot himself. After a lightning-fast ideological duel, Milner decided to shoot. His stop just now was just right, which was completely suitable for a direct shot with his right foot. "Shoot--" With the shouting of New England Sports commentator Jin Xiangkai, Milner completed a powerful shot with his right foot. The shot was powerful enough, but the angle was a bit straight, so goalkeeper Courtois chose to punch the ball out to be on the safe side.

The football flew outside the penalty area, just in front of Cesc Fabregas who stopped suddenly. He stopped the ball lightly with his chest, then raised his right foot. Matic's urgent shout came from behind the graveyard: "Francis Ke, watch your back!”

At the same time, Fabray accelerated and noticed with his peripheral vision a red figure flashing out to the right. The big number '55' behind him told him who this figure was.

"Oops!"

Fabregas realized the problem. He raised his left foot and swung it up, trying to foul Li Qing and keep him outside the penalty area.

Li Qing was extremely explosive. He used his chest to lead the football toward the penalty area. Fabregas, who was slower in kicking, only kicked a ball of air!

"Lee steals the ball behind him!"

Andy Gray's emotions broke out instantly, and he stood up with his hands on the commentary box, which scared the commentator Martin Taylor.

"NO!"

Chelsea head coach Conte naturally pulled his hair with his hands, his eyes full of disbelief.

Everything happened very fast, and neither Matic nor Kanter, who is known for his high intelligence and good predictions, had time to react.

Central defender David Luiz, who was right near the penalty spot, became Chelsea's hope.

Soon after, Li Qing suddenly felt a burst of hot blood spurting out of his chest. His head felt hot and he felt that he could kick him. He supported his right foot on the ground and kicked the falling football with the instep of his left foot. Volleyed directly without stopping the ball.
